Memorial Day Popsicles

If you are in the United States you know that Memorial Day is next week and I thought this might be a good time to whip out my favorite Zoku Quick Pop Maker. Now, you don’t NEED one, you can make these the old-fashioned way, but I will admit making 6 Popsicles in under 10 minutes TOTAL was a bonus!

I used lemonade for all three colors because lemonade Popsicles are a favorite in our house. I just added a drop of red and blue food coloring to the lemonade.

I sliced an apple really thin and used the star shaped cutter that came with my Zoku, but you can find these at your local craft supply store. I added the stars to the Quick Pop maker to add a little more of a festive look.

I simply added blue to one of the pops and striped the red and plain lemonade to make the stripes. I love how the stars and strips pops turned out, and so did my kids!

You can even get a little more creative and add more layers… good ol’ Red, White, and Blue!

Just remember to have fun and enjoy the time with your kids. Making Popsicles for my kids is one of my favorite treats for them because they love it and because I know EXACTLY what ingredients they are getting.
